About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Good for groups
  • Neighbourhood gem
Campisi's Downtown is owned and operated by David Campisi and his family. The restaurant has a long and storied history, beginning in 1946 when David's great-grandfather bought a bar with a small kitchen and began making pizzas - the first ever in Dallas. Today, Campisi's Downtown still makes its famous pizza (you can even build your own if you like), and also serves up a huge array of pasta dishes, salads, appetizers and entrées. For dessert, try the tiramisu or Italian cream cake. There's something for every taste at Campisi's downtown, so bring the family and enjoy delicious beef, veal, chicken and seafood dishes (and pizza!) all made in the traditional Italian style.

    We ordered the crab claws, but they delivered calamari instead. They did recognize their mistake and made it right. However, the service was not very good. Took forever to get our food and we were trying to get to a show at the Majestic theater by eight. our reservation was for six and we were still there at 20 to 8 waiting for the check The pasta was not good. The gluten-free pizza was very good. They need to do some work in my opinion

    The food, as our last visit two years ago, was exceptional! Service was fast, very fast for a top of the line Italian restaurant, and our server attentive. Campisi's is a must visit whenever we are in Dallas!

    Our server took very good care of us. We had 16 at our table & they kept a nice tempo of bringing our food out. We’ll be back!

    There were food selections on the menu for everyone, and a small but nice wine selection. Staff were very accommodating. If a booth by the window is available, it's an enjoyable place to sit.
